Chapter 333 I Have Two Stories
Zhang Zhao couldn't determine the true intentions of the man and woman in front of him, and he didn't even know the true identity of the other party.
This pair of men and women, is it a remnant of the previous dynasty?
Or is it a spy from an enemy nation?
It may also be sent by the imperial court to assassinate the general, or it may be the same group of people who assassinated the general tonight.
These thoughts kept flashing in Zhang Zhao's mind, and at the end, he was cold as if his blood was pouring down.
He finally realized that no matter who the men and women in front of him were, and how many secrets this village hid, he didn't have the capital to talk about the conditions, and the general's life was already in the hands of others.
Or, his life, too.
After thinking about this, Zhang Zhao let go of the hand holding the knife and stood up with Qingqing.
was born and died on the battlefield, and at this life-threatening moment, he couldn't do it if he knelt down and begged for mercy, so he followed Qingqing out of the courtyard with the heart of death, wanting to see what tricks this woman had.
General Wei on the kang didn't know anything about the treacherous clouds in front of him, and muttered unfinished words in his mouth, only the word "Sanniang" that occasionally popped up could be heard.
Zhang Zhao followed Qingqing in the village, Qingqing walked in front, swaying and carrying a lantern to follow the side, Zhang Zhao walked behind the two of them, thinking about whether he could turn around if he took the opportunity to kidnap Mrs. Yu.
"I advise you not to think about it, if the clan grandmother really fights, the clan grandfather is not her opponent." Sha Shao seemed to see through his thoughts, carrying a lantern to shine on Zhang Zhao's face, and Zhang Zhao, who was seen through his thoughts, turned pale.
Qingqing didn't seem to hear this, and introduced the village to Zhang Zhao by herself.
"The last time the general came to the village, he was really a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses, and he was full of spirits, so he must not have the heart to take a closer look at our inconspicuous little village."
】
"Are you sneering and thinking I'm in your pocket now?" Zhang Zhao felt that Qingqing was ridiculing him for not being able to recognize people clearly when he talked about things last time.
"No, I just want to introduce you to this village, this village, originally not called Dayu, the original name was Yujiagou, the name was changed by me and Xianggong in order to avoid bandits, you see the road built in the village now, flat and wide, now it is winter and I can't see the benefits for the time being, but in summer, there will be no stagnant water in our village, and the elderly and children can travel freely."
Qingqing pointed to the half-repaired waterwheel in front of him and said: "The water source in this area is often insufficient, and several villages have broken out a lot of large-scale fights in order to compete for water sources, and many people have died. ”
Qingqing shook his head.
Zhang Zhao didn't understand why she said this, but he was still attracted by Qingqing's words, and he wanted to know more about this village.
"With the waterwheel, the land is secured, there is no problem to fight small droughts, to resist major droughts, and reservoirs will be built, and we are also building reservoirs."
"Do you want to see the surrounding villages die?" Zhang Zhao asked unconsciously, he also farmed before joining the army, and he also knew something about these.
"General, I can't listen to what you say, the two ancestors are not that selfish, the grandmother has told me many times, the lips and teeth depend on each other, the lips and teeth are cold, if we eat meat by ourselves behind closed doors, and let the people in the surrounding villages starve to death and freeze to death, it is to force the good people to be thieves, and they have to fight if they don't want to fight us."
Shaking and changing her timidity in the past, Qingqing told her before going out that she could say whatever she wanted in her heart, and she didn't hide it, maybe her words could save the village.
Shake didn't know what was going on, but she guessed that it must be a big thing, what the clan grandmother asked her to do, she would do it, so along the way, Shake Shake spoke freely, and she could control it at first, and when she heard Zhang Zhao sarcastically mocking her two most respected ancestors, Shake poured out all the words in her heart.
Let's start with the construction of the reservoir.
Qingqing, as an excellent chief engineer, has already arranged a way out for the surrounding villages, Dayu is building a small reservoir, and she has to find a suitable water source nearby to build a large reservoir.
Then lead to the surrounding villages, if there is a disaster year, the people will not have the bad luck of killing each other and cannibalism.
Zhang Zhao, as a deputy general, also heard a lot of things about the construction of water conservancy in the imperial court, he didn't know much about these, but the blueprint outlined from the shaking mouth was no worse than the water conservancy built by the imperial court's heavy industry, and there was a vague transcendent posture.
But Dayu's little girl, what she said was the Tao, why the reservoir should be built there, what requirements are there for the terrain, and even the details of preventing the enemy from infiltrating and poisoning have been thought of, and Zhang Zhao, the old man, understands it.
"This is only a small part of the two ancestors' projects for the benefit of the people, and there are many more, to tell you, you don't understand. You just need to know that the ancestors of our great abundance are the heavenly immortals descending to earth, the reincarnation of living Buddhas, and the purification of sentient beings! ”
The last sentence is obviously shaking herself to add drama, she really thinks so, not only her, but also many surrounding villages.
"You're going to fix these....... That's why you snatch people from the army? No, no, just those people in the escort team can't support you to make such a big move, right? ”
Zhang Zhao was confused, General Wei's escort team was limited in number, although he didn't know how the Yu patriarch and his wife of the evil sect managed to steal beams and change pillars to hide from the world, but the last time he came, the village had not been built so well, how many people would it take to build the village like this in a short time?
This road alone is afraid that it will take a lot of labor.
"Rob whom? Now many villages are rushing to help us! If you don't believe it, if you look at it during the day tomorrow, there will be a lot of workers in the village, and the two ancestors have saved a lot of people! Shake Shake mentioned this, his face full of pride.
Tell the story of how the inseparable couple provided cheap charcoal, how they maintained the balance of the village, and how they fed the desperate people around them.
Zhang Zhao felt like he was listening to a book in Vasher, how did they do these wonderful ideas that he couldn't even think of?
Looking at Qingqing again, there was already a trace of awe in her eyes, if what the little girl with the lantern said was true, then it was not surprising that the smiling lady in front of her was regarded as a bodhisattva.
While speaking, Qingqing had already taken Zhang Zhao to the front of the ancestral hall, the ancestral hall was brightly lit, and Zhang Zhao's heart was beating like a drum.
Pushing open the door, the truth is behind the door, but he doesn't have the courage to break the balance.
Qingqing stood in front of the door, her back blocking the door, guarding everything like a door god, and her signature smile was still on her face.
A door separates the two worlds, one step forward, it is Zhang Zhao who looks dazed, and one step back, it is the man whose life hangs by a thread in the Yu family.
The atmosphere was so weird, there was an indissoluble tension in the air, and Qingqing's nice voice pierced the weird atmosphere.
"Next, it's time to tell the story. I have two stories, let's talk about the first one, once upon a time, there was a village called Yujiagou, the village was short of water and food, and was often bullied by the surrounding villages, when the war started, all the men in the village were taken away as soldiers, and sacrificing their lives for the country may be a relief for them, after all, staying in the village, looking at the suffering that can't be seen, it is better to go out and break through, if a cheap life can be exchanged for a military merit back, it can also let the wife and children of the family have a way to live. ”
